Enjoying high-quality education in the United States is the primary goal for the EB-5 investment immigration population. In recent years, there has been a trend toward younger age groups among those immigrating to the U.S., with some even planning their children's education as early as kindergarten. This issue of Worldway's "Immigration Life" column focuses on the experiential teaching methods found in American kindergartens:
1. In-person instruction from dentists.
Learning to brush one's teeth independently and deepening one's understanding of dental health is an essential life lesson. Periodically, a dentist will visit the kindergarten to give the children a vivid lesson on teeth and ensure every child experiences brushing a model set of teeth. Additionally, through experiential learning, the class teaches students about the adverse effects of items like candy on their teeth. While learning about teeth, children also learn how to categorize food.
2. A unique "Dream Performance."
Every child has their own dream; they might want to be a model or an astronaut. Before children leave school, teachers help them fulfill their dreams for an event.
3. Personal coaching from college athletes.
Every year, the kindergarten contacts university sports teams to send about 10 college athletes to the site to teach the children proper ways to play sports, mainly by exercising and bonding with the children.
4. Growing fruits and vegetables in the garden.
Many American kindergartens specifically set aside a plot of land for children to plant fruits and vegetables, water them daily, fertilize them, and observe their growth. There are also easy-to-grow plants, such as beans and green onions, that children can take seeds home to plant.
5. A "day tour" of the library.
It is hard to imagine a kindergarten arranging for 3-year-olds to spend a whole day in a library. A librarian leads the children on a tour, explaining the history of the library, how books are categorized, and how the library and computer systems work. They also allow children to move around freely and touch items within the library.
6. Scientific observation class.
The most common activity in American kindergartens during the insect-heavy spring season is for teachers to take students to the playground or grassy area with magnifying glasses to search for insects, observing their shapes, features, and living habits. Children are extremely curious; such observations are simple and help them develop an affection for animals, indirectly fostering compassion.
7. Acting as a "beggar" day.
To address the issue of waste, many kindergartens organize "Beggar Day." This means most children act as beggars, while a few others act as the ones distributing food. The standard of the food is the same as what would actually be handed out to beggars, and children wear ragged clothes to look the part. This allows children to experience the different feelings of being a beggar for a day.
8. Friday Sharing Day.
Almost every kindergarten designates Friday as "Sharing Day." On this day, children can bring their favorite toys or books to school to share with others. The teacher organizes the activity, asking each child to introduce their item, explain how to use it, and perhaps share a brief story about it. Children truly enjoy this sharing process.
9. Safety education from public service departments.
Children often lack common safety awareness, such as the damage caused by fire or the consequences of playing with fire. To address this, the school may invite firefighters who arrive in a fire truck to capture the children's interest, show them the equipment, explain the functions of each tool, and instill a sense of fire safety during the tour.
10. Outdoor picnic activities.
Most activities take place inside the kindergarten, but picnic activities go outdoors. Teachers lead their students to the suburbs with their picnic food, allowing them to enjoy nature and exercise their independence.
